Barbara Lee, the sole vote against giving Bush free rein in 2002.
Lee: As a Black woman, there’s no way I don’t have hope. I’ve seen a lot in my life, and we have these moments of backward steps. But we have hope. I see hope. I see our young people—they have hope. I see them fighting hard for our democracy and for a better life.

A genuinely good part of the old Republican aesthetic is how it sought to play down wealth, an impulse born from Protestant values. You can see this in how Bush dressed and decorated his living spaces That aesthetic now replaced by gilt detailing designed to remind you that the occupant is wealthy.
Every day, that demented old man makes the White House look even tackier, having workers glue gold-spray-painted polyurethane bric-a-brac to every available surface. Who knew it was even possible in the United States to stand out for your vulgarity?
